Everybody, Don't Panic.

It's great that folks are helping you, and I can see this thread helpful to other users, but I'm surprised because it really seems like you haven't done adequate research and yet you are getting all this information given to you.




C'mon man, don't give him a lot of shit about asking a lot of questions. It's his first grow, he's nervous about fucking it up. You remember your first grow, right? He's looking for reassurance.

Don't worry about it. Really, if you follow RR's method exactly for grain preparation and inoculation, you're not going to fuck it up. Use your tek for substrate pasteurization word for word, and you won't fuck it up. Contams suck, but it's not the end of the world. If you sterilize your grain properly and use proper inoculation technique, your chances are pretty low that you'll get contams in your jars. You PC your grains for 90 minutes and flame your needle until it's red hot, and you inoculate your jars in a SAB and your jars are pretty much golden. We all senselessly bicker about our theories of why shit works and what's sufficient for no real practical reason because it's the internet--and it all really confuses the hell out of anyone who's never done it before. Don't listen to our bullshit about whether or not alcohol kills mold spores and just flame the damn needle because it's guaranteed to work.

If you follow RR's method to the letter, you'll succeed. He's literally done it hundreds of times, maybe more. If you're using a method that RR doesn't have in his videos (coir, etc.), then pick a "proven tek" from the vault of teks on this site and follow it to the letter. The mods are making a serious effort to cull old bullshit into an archive that is labeled, and any "unproven or experimental" techniques are labeled as such. Don't experiment (maybe later on, but not now). Fuck us and our opinions, you want results. Proven teks provide the results, our stupid chirping doesn't. Frankly, if you're looking for an answer for something, do whatever that's within your power to search for it in a place that's not the forum and use the forum as your very last resort, because the forum is mainly a place where we all get together for a good dick measuring contest.

It's best to shake your syringes, but if you forget, the whole thing won't blow up in your face. Just remember for next time. If you drop your syringe, just wipe it off and make sure you're flame sterilizing it properly--which you're doing anyway--and you'll be ok.

You're doing it right! It'll be ok. :smile:

Thanks man, really needed the reassurance. well i did everything by the book with a SAB so i really should have nothing to worry about, the worst  part is that you have to wait at least a week before you know you've fucked up!!

oh well but seriously thanks for yours and everyone else's help!
